The Five Times I Met Myself by James L. Rubart *Review

James Rubart is author I have really enjoyed in the past. His books are 'different'. They typically take place on a variety of planes. This book is no different. Brock moves between time, via his dreams. He has learned from a book to control his dreams and to visit himself when he was younger, to try to right his wrongs. He seeks to improve his relationship with his father, his brother, his wife and son. He tells the young Brock and gives him advice. Problem is, when he gives him advice and young Brock changes things, then the events of the future get changed as well. Caught in a spiral he can't seem to control, Brock just wants to go back to his 'normal' life.

Whew!! You have to hold on for this one. I had to back up a couple times and try to realize what time we were in, and figure out what things had changed after FB (future Brock) came and changed things in the past. Brock changes his career, his relationships, and even people around him and their relationship with God. Most.. not for the good.
Can God work through our dreams? Can he have us visit another time and change things? He did speak things into being, so why not? Like many of his other books, James Rubart gets you thinking outside of the box and considering a realm beyond the basic one we live in.
He has a knack for writing books like this, and The Five Times I Met Myself was another great book!

James L. Rubart is a professional marketer and speaker. He is the author of the best-selling novel Rooms as well as Book of Days, The Chair, Soul's Gate, Memory's Door, and Spirit Bridge. He lives with his wife and sons in the Pacific Northwest.
